Art Expectations The End! (not really)

YES! I have finally finished Dickens’ Great Expectations and my art-per-page project. I do want to keep this blog going, but as of now, unsure what I will tackle next. I’ll think of something soon! My reasons for creating this blog and this particular project:

Re-read Great Expectations: DONE! (I enjoyed it in high school and it’s as good and timeless as it has ever been.)

Experiment with different styles: DONE! (I have my own “look” but I wanted to branch out and try different styles. So it may look as if I have multiple personalities! That may be true anyway :0)

Admired Matt Kish’s Moby-Dick and Heart of Darkness projects. I borrowed this idea from him. So I want to give credit to his ingenious idea and amazing work. Check him out here: http://www.matt-kish.com/

Thank you to everyone who has followed, commented and critiqued along the way. Till next time, let no shadows part between us!

I do plan to submit it at some point. Just been busy. Need to get going on that! The publisher Matt used does not accept submissions from individuals, only from agents. So I guess I need to see about getting an agent!

Congratulations on finishing the book. I can’t wait to see what you’ll do next. I just signed up for Carla Sonheim’s 365: A Year Long Class http://carlasonheim.com/365-a-year-long-class/
Every day there is a new assignment, mostly painting and drawing but also some music, interviews with artists, etc. Can’t wait to see how it unfolds.
You could do something around the alphabet or numbers using traditional letters or some ancient forms of writing. It could become a book for children or adults. Just a few thoughts.

All great ideas! I like the alphabet idea… hmmm, 26 letters is better than a 300+ page book. Lol! Good luck with Carla’s year long class. I saw it on her blog. Sounds fun. Thanks for all the encouragement!

My name is Julie and I'm reading Great Expectations one page a day and also creating one little work of art (30 minutes or less) a day relating to what I read. Thanks for looking and reading. Leave a comment to let me know what you think!
